Adventure Force Liberator Heavy Spring Reinforcement

thingiverse

Adventure Force Liberator (nerf) Blaster Reinforcement Parts for Upgraded Spring Loads The Adventure Force Liberator Blaster can be upgraded to a heavier spring (k25 fits), but doing this will cause wear and decrease the blaster's lifespan. Since the priming bar is below the spring and plunger rod (off center), during priming heavy spring loads will tend to flex the parts upwards. My own blaster had a broken priming bar after only two months; it cracked and bent upwards. These Reinforcement pieces will help prevent this from happening in the first place. Epoxy Needed 3D printed parts include: Priming Bar Inserts: (the bar that connects the pump grip to the plunger rod); Epoxy these inserts into the hollow sides of the bar to strengthen it. Main Brace: This large brace fits into the hollow space above the plunger rod. It braces between the spring stop and catch to relieve primed spring loads on the shell, also blocking the plunger rod from flexing upwards during priming; which in turn means less bending of the priming bar. Mainbrace will print on a 120*120 MP Select Mini if rotated diagonally, be aware of warping/lifting with large prints!
